Hi! My name is Sara, I am a Registered Nurse (RN-BSN) and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). I am also a mother of two and a military spouse. When breastfeeding both of my children I was not prepared for all of the issues that could occur! Milk supply concerns, pumping when returning to work, clogged ducts, fussy baby, the list goes on! I have years of experience in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) as well as the Newborn Nursery. Being a nurse and working with babies is where I am meant to be! While working in the NICU I found my passion for helping breastfeeding mothers. So I decided to study to become a Lactation Consultant. This allowed me to provide the best care for mothers and babies struggling with lactation issues. I absolutely LOVE being able to assist mothers initiate breastfeeding with their babies in the hospital setting. But I know when you leave the hospital some new challenges may arise. When the nurses and Lactation Consultants can’t be at your bedside, who do you call? Well I am here to help!

I am Dr. Grace. I specialize in healing the deepest parts of ourselves. My practice is guided by equity, safety, and pleasure of all persons. This level of healing requires breaking down internal beliefs of not-enoughness. It is activism and liberation of the Self through the pelvis. This takes conscious awareness of the ancestoral lineage and collective traumas. Loving the You in your pelvis involves grounding, centering in your unique, freely expressed You. I like to think of the pelvis as a point of meeting between the heavens and the earth. I practice healing through Physical Therapy specializing in Women’s Health with an emphasis in Pelvic Health and Obstetric Health. Through trauma informed Medical Yoga Therapy TM, body/mind/spirit movement, breathwork, energy work, Compassionate Inquiry TM, Somatic ExperiencingTM, and various manual therapy techniques, I support relational deep healing. I came to this work through my own experiences with pelvic dysfunction, trauma, and pain. I learned how to give what I always needed.

I have focused my work in early childhood, and over five years specifically in newborn care and as a doula. I have always been drawn to holistic healing and the power of the human mind and body.

I am a certified labor and postpartum doula, currently specializing in overnight doula support. With over 12 years of experience working with children and families, I bring a deep understanding and compassionate approach to every home I enter. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Child Development in 2016, which has further strengthened my foundation in early childhood care. As a toddler mom and home birth mama myself, I know firsthand the joys and challenges that come with the postpartum period. I’m passionate about supporting families through this tender and transformative time- offering not just practical help, but calm, reassurance, and care when it's needed most.

I am a mother of two, homeschool mom, and lover of little people. I have chosen to dedicate my time to helping pregnant humans and their partners take control of their birthing and early parenting experience using techniques that were useful to me in my own parenting journey. With a dash of geeky references and a nerdy vibe, I hope to encourage others to find the joy in life's adventures.

Hello! my name is Anika Raghani, and I’m a Birth and Postpartum Doula based in Los Angeles. I’m passionate about supporting families through every stage of their journey with compassion, respect, and care.My approach is holistic and parent-led—I believe that each family knows what’s best for them. I’m here to walk alongside you, offering the tools, information, and emotional support you need to make empowered, confident choices throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Creating a safe, inclusive, and judgment-free space is at the heart of my practice.

I am a proud wife and mother of 3. I love helping women and families in their journey to/through parenthood by giving support prenatally, during labor & postpartum! I feel it is imperative for parents to have the support they need to ensure they have the best experience possible during a big transition like having a family or extending your family.

I am a Korean-American mom of 3 bi-racial children who are all 1 year apart and entering their teen years. My own experiences have informed my practice of working with women who are pregnant for the first or 3rd time, new parents and seasoned parents who are managing the challenges of balancing the many aspects of raising kids whether in a partnership or as a single parent. Though I'm trained in various modalities to treat perinatal mood disorders and use a trauma informed, integrative approach, in my practice it's the human connection that is prioritized.

I have always been someone who loves to take care of others. For family and friends, I was the one they’d call in an emergency, when someone is passing, when life decisions were being made. I went to college to become a nurse because I wanted to ensure I had a career where I could support people. God works in mysterious ways and I wasn’t able to apply for the nursing program at the college I went to. I had decided to get a degree in Health Systems Management and later, to do the accelerated nursing program. Plans don’t typically work on the way you dream and I found myself two kids later, 1 year too late, unable to apply for the accelerated nursing program. During this season, I had Andrew, our child that wasn’t birthed with the support of a doula, and I knew, being a doula was my answer. I’ve had felt unseen, unheard and unimportant when I was giving birth and I wanted to make sure that didn’t happen to others. I’m often get introduced as “Doula Jenn” and, I love it. I don’t just doula people through childbirth, I support through life. Parenthood is hard, marriages are hard, finding connection with friends is hard and I want to come alongside you in life. I’m an active member of the High Vibe Mom Tribe and I host virtual book clubs several times a year to support women through their marriages.

Hi! I’m Katherine! I’m a newer doula looking to gain more experience. With over four years of nanny experience, most recently caring for infants, I'm excited to expand my schedule outside my current nanny position to focus on postpartum doula work. I absolutely love being with families, nurturing babies, and supporting birthing parents. This work isn't just a job; it's where I belong. As a loving and intentional doula, my support is rooted in the understanding that welcoming a new baby is a significant transition for every family. While I enjoy music, animals, and spending time with my family, birthwork is a true passion that deeply integrates into my personal life.
